Black Obsidian Stones
Black Obsidian stones I brought them from Mexico in July 2017. We had bus tour to Chichen Itza, and on the way, we stop in little Mayas village where they were selling all different handmade stuff. I didn’t buy jewelry for myself, but I did what I love. I got my new stones. Black Obsidian stones are spiritual and energy stones (they are from lava).
I had Mayan Shaman performing ceremony on me and my new stones.
He told me to take my new stones in the air by Chichen Itza temples to get more positive energy and spirit.
Obsidian is a natural form of volcanic glass , composed of various combinations of basalt, Andesite, Rhyolite, and Trachyte.
Obsidian is a strongly protective stone, forming a shield against negativity. It grounds you to the earth through the base chakra, absorbs negative energies from the environment, and strengthens you in times of need. It is helpful to highly sensitive people. It blocks psychic attack and removes negative spiritual influences.
A large piece of obsidian can be extremely efficient at blocking geopathic stress or soaking up environmental pollution, but its tendency to exposing the truth has to be taken into account. It is helpful for therapists and counsellors as it not only helps to get to the core of a problem, but it clears the negative energies that are released. Black or mahogany obsidian are suitable for this purpose. Place obsidian by your bed or under the pillow to draw out mental stress and tension, it may have a calming effect but it will also highlight the cause of the stress. The cause must be redressed before peace can return, this will resolve the problem permanently rather than just having a palliative effect. It is essential to clean the stone under running water each time it has been used so that the stone won't retain the negative energy and send it back to you.
Obsidian brings clarity to the mind and clears confusion and restricting belief systems. It may do this by making it absolutely clear to you what lies behind the mental distress or disease. Once the confusion and belief systems have been cleared obsidian expands your consciousness and helps you enter the realm of the unknown with confidence and ease.
Obsidian's gift to your is the insight into the causes of disease. It helps with digestion. It detoxifies, dissolving blockages and tension, including hardened arteries. It reduces the pain of arthritis, joint problems, cramps and injuries. Crystal water is useful for all types of shock. It eases pain and stops bleeding.

Bamboo & Rattan Massage
For century's bamboo has been a vital part of everyday life throughout South East Asia. No one knows who first started to use bamboo tools to help ease the tired muscles but it was only natural that they would fashion massage tools out of the material that had come to signify good luck, long life, friendship, peace and harmony.
In use the smooth surface of the bamboo feels good on the body of the client and in the hands of the therapist alike and it is common to hear from clients that they cannot tell the difference between the hands of the therapist and the tools themselves.
With their natural coloration and texture, no two sets are ever the same. Each tool is designed to work on various parts of the body and maximize leverage and gravity with sliding, rolling, kneading, pivoting, levering, tapping and friction techniques. Because the tools cover such a broad area at one time they afford some of the most effective and enjoyable work imaginable on trouble areas such as neck, shoulders, back and legs.
Before being applied to the body the Bamboo and Rattan tools are warmed with a heating pad. The application of the warm bamboo melts away the tensions of the client while at the same time creating a deeply relaxing and soothing experience. The tools are switched from time to time to maintain that warm bamboo feel. The simple truth is that bamboo and rattan tools are absolutely fantastic for some things and way below average for others.
Bamboo Massage answers the often asked question of therapists, 'how can I work deeper on my clients who want deep pressure and save my hands?' The use of bamboo and rattan tools levels the playing field between smaller therapists and larger deeply muscled clients. The often heard request from client's 'can you work a little deeper' can now be addressed with the proper use of the tools while still maintaining a natural feel to the client's massage experience.
Aromatherapy
What is aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils from plants for healing. Although the word “aroma” makes it sound as if the oils are inhaled, they can also be massaged into the skin or -- rarely -- taken by mouth. You should never take essential oils by mouth without specific instruction from a trained and qualified specialist. Whether inhaled or applied on the skin, essential oils are gaining new attention as an alternative treatment for infections, stress, and other health problems. However, in most cases scientific evidence is still lacking.
What are essential oils?
Essential oils are concentrated extracts taken from the roots, leaves, seeds, or blossoms of plants. Each contains its own mix of active ingredients, and this mix determines what the oil is used for. Some oils are used to promote physical healing -- for example, to treat swelling or fungal infections. Others are used for their emotional value -- they may enhance relaxation or make a room smell pleasant. Orange blossom oil, for example, contains a large amount of an active ingredient that is thought to be calming.
What is the history of aromatherapy?
Essential oils have been used for therapeutic purposes for nearly 6,000 years. The ancient Chinese, Indians, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans used them in cosmetics, perfumes, and drugs. Essential oils were also commonly used for spiritual, therapeutic, hygienic, and ritualistic purposes.
How does aromatherapy work?
Researchers are not entirely clear how aromatherapy may work. Some experts believe our sense of smell may play a role. The "smell" receptors in your nose communicate with parts of your brain (the amygdala and hippocampus) that serve as storehouses for emotions and memories. When you breathe in essential oil molecules, some researchers believe they stimulate these parts of your brain and influence physical, emotional, and mental health. For example, scientists believe lavender stimulates the activity of brain cells in the amygdala similar to the way some sedative medications work. Other researchers think that molecules from essential oils may interact in the blood with hormones or enzymes.
Aromatherapy massage is a popular way of using essential oils because it works in several ways at the same time. Your skin absorbs essential oils and you also breathe them in. Plus, you experience the physical therapy of the massage itself.
What is aromatherapy good for?
Aromatherapy is used in a wide range of settings -- from health spas to hospitals -- to treat a variety of conditions. In general, it seems to relieve pain, improve mood, and promote a sense of relaxation. In fact, several essential oils -- including lavender, rose, orange, bergamot, lemon, sandalwood, and others -- have been shown to relieve anxiety, stress, and depression.
Several clinical studies suggest that when essential oils (particularly rose, lavender, and frankincense) were used by qualified midwives, pregnant women felt less anxiety and fear, had a stronger sense of well being, and had less need for pain medications during delivery. Many women also report that peppermint oil relieves nausea and vomiting during labor.
Massage therapy with essential oils (combined with medications or therapy) may benefit people with depression. The scents are thought by some to stimulate positive emotions in the area of the brain responsible for memories and emotions, but the benefits seem to be related to relaxation caused by the scents and the massage. A person’s belief that the treatment will help also influences whether it works.
In test tubes, chemical compounds from some essential oils have shown antibacterial and anti fungal properties. Some evidence also suggests that citrus oils may strengthen the immune system and that peppermint oil may help with digestion. Fennel, aniseed, sage, and clary sage have estrogen like compounds, which may help relieve symptoms of premenstrual syndrome and menopause.
Other conditions for which aromatherapy may be helpful include:
-Alopecia areata (hair loss)
-Agitation, possibly including agitation related to dementia
-Anxiety
-Constipation (with abdominal massage using aromatherapy)
-Insomnia
-Pain: Studies have found that people with rheumatoid arthritis, cancer (using topical chamomile), and headaches (using topical peppermint) require fewer pain medications when they use aromatherapy
Itching, a common side effect for those receiving dialysis
-Psoriasis
Benefits of Cold Stone Massage
One of the benefits of cold stone massage is that it can provide a deep state of relaxation, a release of tension, as well as, a reduction of swelling and inflammation due to scar tissue, trauma or injuries to muscles.
Cold stones are critical in stone massage work as they decrease soreness when working on deeper muscles, draw heat away from the body, and help to strengthen on a cellular level.
Marble is used for cool stones because it’s less dense than the stones and can easily remove heat from the body.
Cold marble massage stones are also known for helping to alleviate:
Anxiety/Depression
Stones that are cold help the mind to focus on the body and what it is experiencing rather than the mental/stress issues of life.

Marble massage stones are metamorphosed limestone that is white or light in color and formed beneath the seabed. Physically, it’s thought that another of the benefits of cold stone massage using marble improves the processing of calcium in the body, stimulates the metabolism, fortifies immunity, and encourages the healing of tissue and bone.
In contrast to basalt, marble is very soft and easy to break or scratch. The marble has to be carefully cut and hand-sanded to just the right size and shape needed to assist in the bodywork that cryotherapy was meant to do for the body – bringing down inflammation and starting the healing process.
Marble massage stones have to fit neatly into the therapist’s hand, in order to switch from hot to cool in moments. Again it’s vital to choose consistent, non-polished, properly shaped marble stones.
Keep in mind this is just a starting point or point of reference as you learn to configure a set that works best for you. Your set will vary based on your application.
Marble massage stones are often shaped by hand and designed to provide a cool alternative for every hot stone used. Each marble stone is carefully crafted to perform a specific task.
Whether you are massaging sore muscles, feet or hands, massaging the face to reduce swelling, headaches, sinus congestion, puffiness etc., or massaging the jaw area for soreness from TMJ, the benefits of cold stone massage greatly reduces headaches, stress, inflammation, and tension.
Facial Cupping
Women in Asia, Russia and Europe have been utilizing these remarkable negative pressure facial exercises for rejuvenation and maintenance for generations.
Protocols for the face use the small cups to vacuum and lift the facial tissue, mimicking the pumping movements of lymphatic drainage. It is a manual method that replicates the effects of equipment currently in use in most of the top aesthetic establishments.
The benefits include increased local circulation of the skin, increased nutrients brought to the epidermis, and enhanced absorption of facial tropical. The drainage of stagnant fluids from reservoir areas will reduce edema and chronic puffiness.
Lines, wrinkles and will plump whereas scar tissue will soften from the negative pressure, making it an exceptionally powerful and surprisingly relaxing enhancement to advanced facial treatments.
The muscles of the face benefit greatly from the reduction of tension and tightness, releasing expression lines and loosening rigid muscles associated with TMJ disorders.
Sinus infections and inflammation are also directly relieved by the loosening and draining effects of the cups - many times resolving issues that many sufferers commonly turned to more radical procedures to correct.
Kansa Face and Body Wand
The Kansa Wand Face Massage reduces stress and provides a gentle face-lifting therapy, using a bronze-capped massage wand and organic natural massage oils.
The bronze is a sacred metal alloy. Kansa (pronounced cuns) is produced from pure tin and copper. This blend of metals is known in Ayurveda, a traditional healing system in India, as "Healing Metal".
The Kansa Wand provides gentle friction to facial muscles which helps pull acidity from the tissues. If fact, as it is used on the face, oils will often get grey or black if acids are present in the skin.
Another advantage of this treatment is the subtle electrical conductivity of the bronze metal, which may explain how this therapy improves the body's natural electrical balancing system.
Tools like this have been used for centuries in India to enhance health and strength, and to increase energy, and reduce stress. They are believed to be essential to optimal health and well-being.
Other benefits of Kansa Wand Face Massage:
Revitalizes face, shoulder, and neck muscles
Gently lifts facial skin
